Soil arching effect analysis and structure optimization of a robot foot sinking in soft soil
In this study, to analyze the influence of the cross-sectional shape of a rigid foot on its sinking performance in soft soil, a numerical model of the subsidence of a single leg was built using the arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian method in ABAQUS to describe the interaction between the foot and soil....
